Yeah, I've seen this in other groups as well. They (spammers) are
getting very clever. Very short posts with legit content and then the
link is using URL shorterning services like this one.

Hopefully, google will pick up on this and start to dereference short
urls and perhaps from that see that its spam.

Actually these days I work on the GMail anti-spam team, believe it or not :-)

Groups spam fighting has got a lot better lately, but there's still a
long way to go and we know it. Working on it ....

btw, I just tried the link - the spam target is already in the malware
blocklist. If 2it don't get on top of their abuse problem, pretty
quickly any mail with a 2it link in will be spamfoldered
automatically.

Mike,

You are now working in Anti-Spam??   :)

Can we punish spammers at all, so that spam can become a thing of the past?
